    Default Old Fire Belly Won't eat

    I'm worried that my old guy is on his way out. Is it normal for older toads, close to passing to stop eating? Also, today he has started acting very weird - he keeps trying to climb out of the terrarium. He's walking all over the place and doing a lot of moving around. Before today, he and his buddy have always hidden inside their rock decoration. I'm just worried about him. I haven't changed anything about their food. I know he hasn't eaten in about 4 weeks except for 1 cricket. Help. I'm bummed and don't want him to die.

    He's around 3. And when I pick him up he feels so light and empty. It's so sad.

    I've read fbts live 10-15 years at least. Maybe parasites idk? Do you make sure the others aren't eating his share of food? I hand feed my fbt's
